Is Karl Marx advocating a religious society indirectly?

True classlessness is born from abundance and inner understanding, not from the coercion of imposed revolutions.

— Osho
According to Osho, Karl Marx neither directly nor indirectly advocates a religious society. Marx’s route—state power, dictatorship of the proletariat, then a supposed withering away—is psychologically naive and historically false; power doesn’t relinquish itself. Such coercion breeds a stronger state, not spirituality. True classlessness, Osho says, arises naturally with growing abundance and inward understanding, not by imposed revolutions.

No—Marx’s plan uses force and big government, which makes rulers cling to power instead of making people spiritual.
